Well, basically, if you didn't ever try to make any displacement or a skybox, then you should not post that reply in the first place. At least, before posting a possible solution for a problem, try yourself first your own advice :wink:

useful tools and stuff here on TWP :thumbup:

It really did happen before that someone gave me bad advice. I know that because I didn't make terrains before, I shouldn't help, but I had a feeling I had to help. If anyone asks why, there is no proper explanation.

That's what the people here were trying to explain. What you did was not okay but you got it. So there's no reason to argue about this, if you just don't give bad advice anymore, is it?

Better help suggesting not against and arguing those nonsense story,
Looking forward to your Terrain mapping soon sir,

Then you shouldn't have posted in the first place. That's what I'm saying. Not providing any information at all is better than providing possibly bad information. Trust me, someone would have (and did) provide the correct solutions to the problem without you giving your "suggestion".

Frankly I've got to agree with this; that's like me telling a new guy how to code adhesion gel.

EDIT: Whoops, I posted two comments.

TAKE A PROP_EXPLODING_FUTBOL, HOLD ON TO IT. Remember, you don't need to go BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. You need to go ZOOM ZOOM ZOOM. Once you get to your destination, FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO FIDDLE WITH.
